Admissions timeline
CSC/CGS planning season: general government guidance describes September through the following March, but this is not a deadline for every route. Check the current embassy, dispatching-authority or university notice for the exact opening, submission stages and closing date.
Typical intake: September; some universities offer a smaller March intake.
We have not yet hand-checked a current application window for Shanxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, so no status pill is shown. Absence from our verified list does not mean closed: confirm on the official admission notice. Verified windows sitewide were last checked September 14, 2026.
CSC application deadline
For the 2026/2027 intake the CSC High-Level Postgraduate Program notice published October 27, 2025 sets a single closing date of March 15, 2026, and that window has now closed; it covers master's applicants only, requires a pre-admission letter from the university in addition to the CSC online application, and states no separate earlier departmental cut-off. For the 2025/2026 intake the equivalent notice set the same calendar date, March 15, 2025, and that window has also closed. No self-funded application window for 2026 or 2027 exists: the university's most recent published International Student Admission Manual is the 2022 edition, which gives a self-funded window of February 1, 2022 to June 15, 2022 for the 2022/2023 intake — a closed window that is now four years old and must not be read as the current one. No notice announcing the 2027/2028 intake has been published. For the Shanxi provincial government scholarship (来晋留学政府奖学金) the site publishes only evaluation-result announcements — the most recent being the 2022-2023 academic year results posted November 8, 2023 — and no application deadline, so no provincial deadline can be stated.
